Finding Lost Negatives are Fun!

Have you ever found some old negatives or photos? What do they look like?

Solving losted negatives are fun!

Yesterday, I went out and walked across our street, taking photos with my friend and my Diana Mini in the city center. Then, I saw some negatives next to a waste container. I said to myself, ‘Who can be stupid enough to put negatives in a waste container?!’

I took them home, cleaned them in the shower, and hung them on a rope to dry. After 2 hours, I polished them and scanned them. The photos look pretty good, they seem to be taken with a Porst color film, and maybe an original Lomo LC-A.

I think they are from holidays from Crimea in the early 80s. The man on the photo looks like a member of StB (Czechoslovak Secret Police).

Ever wondered about those cool photos with overlapping images? Those are Multiple Exposures, and if you're curious about how to do this technique, look no further. We have prepared a guide that gives you all the information that you need!

Unfortunately, it happens sometimes that your resulting pictures are not what you expected - the image doesn't look that good, the colors are bland, and the subject is banal. Indeed, it couldn't be picture of the year! Herein I propose a second chance for your pictures by modifying your 35mm negatives. Just pick up some ideas from here, experiment, and scan your negatives with the Lomography Smartphone Scanner. Anything is possible: burning, scratching, putting on hydrochloric acid, balsamic vinegar, nail polish, bleach, or raspberry juice... use your imagination and write down your new film soup recipe! You can find a sample of the effects in this article.
